Patch 3.3 PTR Build 10623

Patch 3.3 - PTR Build 10623
A new build has been deployed on PTRs, stay tuned for more updates!

Kalu'ak Fishing Derby
A new fishing contest is available, the Kalu'ak Fishing Derby (Every Wednesday) - "The Kalu'ak hold a fishing derby every few days in Northrend. Be the first to catch a Blacktip Shark and win respect with the Kalu'ak, and an amazing prize!"

Tier 10 - Priest & Paladin
I'm not sure if the Paladin helm is a bug or not. Don't yell at me.

New Models
An interesting model has been added ... I will try to not spoil, it's not hard to figure out who that guy is. (Just read the comments if you really want to know)

Achievements
Lot of changes on the Raids & Dungeons PTR achievements ... to even more temporary achievements. Apparently the Kalu'ak Fishing Derby will be a new fishing contest in Northrend!

Patch 3.3 PTR Notes Update - 10/20
The Patch 3.3 PTR Notes have been updated once again. A new build is deployed tonight on PTRs.

General

Quel’Delar Quest Chain: The Battered Hilt, the item needed to start this quest line, can now be purchased from all glyph vendors on the public test realms.

PvPBattlegrounds

The achievements to get exalted with the Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, and Alterac Valley factions have been removed from their respective “Master of” meta-achievements. Special titles will be offered to those who reach exalted with these factions.

Wintergrasp

You must now have the following ranks to build or pilot siege vehicles:

Deep Freeze: This spell now deals a large amount of damage to targets permanently immune to stuns.

WarlockAffliction

Shadow Mastery: This talent now also increases the damage done by the felhunter’s Shadow Bite ability by 3/6/9/12/15%.

Demonology

Molten Core: Redesigned. This talent now increases the duration of Immolate by 3/6/9 seconds and provides a 4/8/12% chance to gain the Molten Core effect when Corruption deals damage. The Molten Core effect empowers the next 3 Incinerate or Soul Fire spells cast within 15 seconds (Incinerate: increases damage done by 6/12/18% and reduces cast time by 10/20/30%; Soul Fire: increases damage done by 6/12/18% and increases critical strike chance by 5/10/15%). Molten Core now has a new spell effect.

Destruction

Conflagrate: Redesigned. This talent now consumes an Immolate or Shadowflame effect on the enemy target to instantly deal damage equal to 9 seconds of Immolate or 8 seconds of Shadowflame, and causes additional damage over 3 seconds equal to 3 seconds of Immolate or 2 seconds of Shadowflame. In addition, the periodic damage of Conflagrate is capable of critically striking the afflicted target.

Reputation

Gaining reputation with the Ashen Verdict in Icecrown Citadel will grant players access to upgradeable rings from Ormus the Penitent. Players can switch between the type of ring (melee/caster/tank/healer) at any point in the upgrade path for 200g.

Items

Hatchlings: Leaping, Darting, Razormaw, and Ravasaur Hatchlings no longer drop from their associated rare creatures. Instead, there are now rare nests that spawn which contain these hatchlings. For example, the Leaping Hatchling can now be found in Takk’s Nest rather than as a drop from Takk the Leaper.

You missed one;"The achievements to get exalted with the Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, and Alterac Valley factions have been removed from their respective “Master of” meta-achievements. Special titles will be offered to those who reach exalted with these factions."

Frankly, i'm pissed. I spent a good few WEEKS of constant BG'ing to get exalted with AB and WSG (hell, even from Revered to Exalted is a pain in the ass in Vindication EU) for Battlemaster. It was by far the longest part of the achievement, one of the major grindy parts of such an achievement. It was the real test of whether you could be bothered to put in the time and effort to get it (i actually got someone post on my Youtube video stating that Arena Master > Battlemaster, and that Battlemaster can be earned by simply playing for 1 hour a day, and also at the same time all day long, think it was some nerdrage just because someone had something they didn't have).

There go all the hours i spent farming / camping them all . lol
oh well, watever , could have been worse :-P

Re: Patch 3.3 PTR Build 10623

As a Mage, I welcome (potentially) being the first pure class in the game with all 3 specs being viable in raiding

"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age"

Re: Patch 3.3 PTR Build 10623

ooh paladin tier 10

Then Rhonin went down to Blackrock Depths, killed Emperor Dagram Thaurissan, and fathered the heir to the throne of Ironforge with the extremely grateful Moira Bronzebeard. But he wasn't done yet; the Dark Iron Dwarves were doing the bidding of Ragnaros the Firelord, so Rhonin went down to Molten Core and beat the crap out of everybody.

"TOO SOON," bellowed Ragnaros.

But Rhonin was all: "It's never too soon to party, Rhonin-style."

And then he beat Ragnaros to death with his own hammer, because Rhonin is the only Mage who ever had the mad skillz to train two-handed maces.

On the way out of Blackrock Mountain, Rhonin went to the spire and pwned Nefarian. He saved Vaelestrasz the Red, and the two did a celebratory chest bumb.

Re: Patch 3.3 PTR Build 10623

If the paladin helm is not a bug, I may end up deleting my paladin.

I hate when people whine about tier sets. I'm trying to like this one. I really, really am trying. But so far I am just really not feeling it. And that helm is just... oh god, please tell me it's broken. Just... just broken, that's all. It'll be okay. It'll be okay...
